Guji and Grace Lorenzana Out of The VoicePh + I Need You Now Song by Lady Antebelleum

I’m sure by now everyone knows that siblings Guji and Grace Lorenzana is officially out of The Voice of The Philippines Battle Royale. I became a fan  of this  brother and sister tandem of because of the “blind Auditions” song-piece that they sang, “I Need You Now” by Lady Antebellum.

I fell in love with their rendition of this song that eventually it became my favorite.

But no matter what happen Guji and Grace, I’m sure there’s a bigger stage out there for you. Hope to see you guys perform soon.

To Guji and Grace…. I became a FAN.

A Call for Support: The Whale Call Project

A few days ago, I was invited to attend an app launch. And to my amazement it was for a very worthy cause. It is called the The Whale Call Project.

What is Whale Call Project?

Whale Call Project is founded by GIL de PALMA, who is a cause-leader of STOP DOLPHIN and WHALE SLAUGHTERING. This cause has more than 500,000 followers from all over the world.

The Whale Call Project is s global movement calling for the symbolic social sounding of whale songs to promote marine conservation.

Mr. Gil de Palma has parttnered with BAZINGA, which is a leading tech company that designs, operates and markets digital entertainment content that uses the latest technology.

It was Mr. Gil de Palma's idea to use music to save whales and of course with the help of Bazinga as the platform in delivering Music leverage on technology makes it now easy for everyone to take part in this very worthy cause.

Ms.Earth Phils.2012 and musician Mark Escueta , present to support the Whale Call Project

I also learned a lot about whales during the press launch and here are some of them:

•  Whales are the largest mammal in the ocean.
•  Whales are vital in the ocean's biodiversity. They help stabilize the aquatic food chain and reproduction of other marine species.

•  Just like human, whales also love MUSIC.

So how can u help and be part of this environment-friendly advocacy?

ONE PACIFIC PLACE: My HOME away from home

I have been  busy these past few days because of lots of workload leaving me with no time for my kids. And it felt awful not having much time to bond with them. So what do I do? I decide that instead of going to the mall, watch a movie or eat-out, I checked out some places where we can be lazy and just bond. My idea is to have a "staycation" in a hotel. A hotel or a serviced condo where there is a pool, gym and restaurant that serves delicious and tummy-filling food.

A lot of hotels are already offering these services, but I thought I had to break-away from the known chain of hotels to experience "newer" ones and those who offer the luxury of being "home away from home".

I was browsing through Facebook one day, and this led me to checking ONE PACIFIC PLACE. When I checked their site. It was "spic and span: all tabs are in the right place and most importantly it is very easy to navigate.
